[edit] Circle Drive

Circle Drive (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

The road in question is not notable in any way. The Circle Drive article itself also contains no usefull information, merely stating that the southwestern portion of the road is part of the Yellowhead Highway. Circle Drive does not need a Wikipedia article.--CP 61 (talk) 02:13, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete→Changed to Keep - Hmmm, can't wait for the thrilling installments of the next 29,999 roads left in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan! ;) NN and gives almost no useful information. Delete. Spawn Man (talk) 03:06, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
    • Change to Keep↑ Now sufficiant evidence for notability. Although the article prior gave no assertion of notability, the citations and minor expansions added do. Spawn Man (talk) 03:52, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete: Yeah, I think this one should go. - Rjd0060 (talk) 04:46, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - weird but this seems a notable road. Seems to be a major ring road around Saskatoon. First proposed in 1913, built through the 80s and 90s and carrying 50k vehicles per day as of 2004. Seems a major road with a noted bridge, engineering reports, lots on money spent on widening. Its bridge (Circle Drive Bridge (Saskatoon)) has an article with some ok sources. There are news articles and at least 4 useful google books hits. Just a stub about a worthy subject - Peripitus (Talk) 06:25, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per Perpitus, but the stub needs to state the road's importance. A search does indicate that the road is a significant highway. • Gene93k (talk) 11:33, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per above. A significant ring road around a major city is notable. --Oakshade (talk) 20:53, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment I suppose if the road really is significant then it could use an article, but it should be expanded greatly upon what is currently there. A couple of paragraphs does not make for a good Wikipedia article.--CP 61 (talk) 02:12, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
  • That's a good reason for a stub notice, not deletion. --Oakshade (talk) 02:29, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep: As per above. Make it a stub and it can be expanded. Drm310 (talk) 18:19, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
